The show is famous for its surreal and slapstick sense of humour and its strange and whacky characters, and has been compared to shows such as Fawlty Towers and Spaced. The show has proved quite popular in other countries outside of Britain, such as Norway, where it is known as 'The Crazy Shop!'. Most episodes work on the template that two characters (Bernard and Manny) have one sub-plot and the other character (Fran) has another, and at the end of the episode, both sub-plots join together to form a conclusion.
